A coach who trained a national team now drives 4 hours round trip to coach college kids for $25/hr
Ahmed Elmallah coached the Saudi youth national table tennis team. Now he lives on Long Island and drives 2 hours each way to coach Yale's club team, which is a student-run club sport, not even varsity, for $25/hr because the university won't pay more. He also helped them get an equipment sponsorship. The gym floors are apparently slippery because they don't get cleaned enough.
A guy who clearly loves what he does.
